Have You Been Involved with Calm Computing While Selling the Tokenized Version of Yourself on Black Friday?
Tuesday, 25 November, 2025
Thanksgiving hits different when your avatar is more valuable than your real self. In this week’s edition of Off the Record, On the Rocks, Toner & Ankarino break down the three big flippenings of the season: Sam Altman’s ambient “calm computing” moonshot, Jesse Pollock turning himself into a coin, and Elon Musk telling us that money is just a vibe (preferably traded in puka shells). Google Gemini hijacks the narrative while Disney unzips its IP vault to let your digital twin play dress-up as Elsa. The creator economy is no longer about what you make—it’s about who you are, or who you pretend to be. Klarna mints a stablecoin, OpenSea trades creator tokens, and Polymarket becomes the unofficial Fed. Black Friday isn’t even a day anymore—it’s a mirror, and you’re in it. Happy holidays.
